Patent number: 9070557Abstract: A semiconductor structure including a double patterned structure and a method for forming the semiconductor structure are provided. A negative photoresist layer is formed on a positive photoresist layer, which is formed over a substrate. An exposure process is performed to form a first exposure region in the positive photoresist layer and to form a second exposure region in the negative photoresist layer in response to a first and a second intensity thresholds of the exposure energy. A negative-tone development process is performed to remove portions of the negative photoresist layer to form first opening(s). The positive photoresist layer is then etched along the first opening(s) to form second opening(s) therein. A positive-tone development process is performed to remove the first exposure region therefrom to form a double patterned positive photoresist layer.Type: GrantFiled: March 7, 2013Date of Patent: June 30, 2015Assignee: SEMICONDUCTOR MANUFACTURING INTERNATIONAL CORP.Inventors: Daniel Hu, Ken Wu, Yiming Gu
